IntroGBmAVerse 1GD
And if the terrors of the night
GD/F#
Come creeping into your day
GDA
And the world comes stealing children from your room

Guard your innocence
GBmA
From hallucination
GDE
And know that darkness always gathers around the light
Chorus 1GD
There is a light, you can’t always see

If there is a world, we can’t always be
GD
If there is a dark, that we shouldn’t doubt
ABmE
And there is a light, don’t let it go out
Verse 2GD
When the wind screams and shouts
GD/F#
And the sea is a dragon’s tail
GDA
And the ship that stole your heart away sets sail
GBmA
When all you’ve left is leaving
GBmA
And all you got is grieving
GBmA
And all you know is needing
GDE
Ah da-da, ah da-da-da, ah-da
Chorus 2GD
If there is a light, you can’t always see

Verse 3GD
I know the world is done

But you don’t have to be
GDD/F#
I’ve got a question for the child in you before it leaves

Are you tough enough to be kind?

Do you know your heart has its own mind?
GBmA
Darkness gathers around the light
GE
Hold on, hold on
Chorus 3GD
There is a light, you can’t always see
